Q: What does the BoC teach as the highest qualities of woman?

A. Chastity and domesticity.

The word “Gentile” is generally misleading and frequently abused — we should probably stop using it.

All truth is one.

If the early Church had been Baptists, they would not have been fed to the lions.

If a drug or a procedure is known to be or suspected of being an abortifacient, then Christians may not — in good conscience — make use of such drug or procedure until the contrary is proven.

Anthropogenic climate change is ridiculous nonsense, but pollution and environmental degradation are issues that Christians should take extremely seriously.

Imbeciles: ‘sEpArAtIoN oF cHuRcH aNd StAtE¡’

Lutherans:

‘Contemporary worship’ is not Lutheran.

Churches with ‘contemporary worship’ are not Lutheran.

Lutherans do not do ‘contemporary worship’.

The Lutheran Study Bible actually corrects the (mis)translation of the ESV and notes that ἀνδραποδιστής means ‘kidnapper’, not merely ‘enslaver’:

»1:10 enslavers. Kidnappers, involved in illegal slave trade.«

‘Manstealing’, ‘enslaving’, and ‘slave dealing’ are distinct concepts — part of why we have distinct words to represent them; ἀνδραποδιστής is not properly translated ‘enslaver’ or ‘slave dealer’, but ‘manstealer’.
